@cyndi brown Sounds nice! 👍 Atlanta (Southside) here. I'm looking out my back windows/slider at my "personal forest" in the back (deep lot, and there's a creek back there). It's a 3/2 also, with an enclosed two-car garage. Thursday I'll be paying my mortgage of $439.14. Also paying my yearly property taxes of $1100. This I can pay even on my retiree/fixed income budget. And I own this, so I'm not worried about a landlord. And this is a working-class subdivision. . . no HOA; no gated entrance. I didn't understand the importance of that when I purchased, but I know now I got lucky, there. IDK how the young folks find housing anymore with these ever-increasing prices. 😢 An average 1 BR apartment around Atlanta costs about my whole (net) monthly pension (I'm kind of "insurance poor" but, at my age, I use it a lot.) I sure am glad I bought my house in 1986, like my coworkers were telling me to do. I didn't want to leave my apartment because they took care of maintenance (sort of!) My coworker told me: "If you work here, you can't afford *not* to buy a house," so, reluctantly, I did. Whew! That was close!

Several people in history have died because such gangrene kept spreading until there was nothing left to safely remove from their body. I'm not saying that the worst-case scenario is everyday common, but it is definitely NOT just an "I got bit, and it hurts" thing either. Neither is the Black Widow bite. It's very rarely fatal but hellishly painful and causes extreme cramps. The BW antivenom only works ONCE. So, do you take your chances and save that antivenom for a possible later bite at old age (when it CAN kill you), or do you suffer through total body cramps and "assume" that THOSE won't kill you? Some small few people have died "saving" that one shot antivenom for a possible later date. In other words, neither you nor I know what's going to happen in that situation until it happens (hopefully never).

Is the minimum wage now 7-20$ pay rate maybe with every thing else sky high food up 5$ gas everything.. so that 200 that use to work never will again rent up 2,000$ wages only up like 18$ ?!? 20$ to pay for 2,000 in rent plus odds and ends so basically say 4000 a month.. the government can stick them odds up there ass they want us to die

I'm in the North Dallas area. $1400 mortgage for 2300 sq ft, 3 bd 2 bath, 3 car garage on 1/4 acre treed lot in a cul de sac with tons of green space. Couldn't make me live in NYC, even at gun point. And ya'll can keep your negative comments to yourselves. Lol Dallas is awesome.

I’m in a 4 bed, 3 bath on 1.5 acres in the North Georgia mountains for HALF of $3200/month. And I own, not rent. I cannot imagine living in that NYC “prison cell.” …But i know, to each his own.

I like the 3rd one the best. It has a lot of character. Love when you and Charles do videos together

The thing I really like about Cash's channel is how the last person to be in so many of those rooms/apts, looks out for him and leaves a camera in position and running for when he finally gets there!

No way, that price for an underground/basement apt is unreal for the 1st two apts & the 4th one is better, but only if it was $1200 p/month. If it rains a lot & you are living in the 1st two apts, you are drowning. $7900 for the 3rd one, is a down payment on a small hse with an FHA loan in other places. Great video. Ms. B. Churchill

After yesterdays ''extravaganza" apt, this was a good comparison showing how average people live and they don't live in $16m apts. These weren't horrible by any means, just lacked space, but if you have enough light, it's really not so bad. That being said because I've lived in small apts in the city. My husband used to call them converted elevator shafts they call apts....lol.

I feel like I’m an average person but I could never afford any of these places. To split a small apt with no CA or in-unit W/D but pay upwards of $2,000 for your share of the rent?

Average seems a stretch.

I watched this whole video for the apartment that "used to be a closet" but it's never mentioned

you did not have to kill the spider bro

I think that spider would have killed the inevitable water bugs you're gonna get on that basement level.

Honest question here: Was there any particular reason why you killed that spider?

Yes, disregard for life and lack of empathy. Makes me sick😢

See's Candies are great. Love the Polar Bear Paws they make.

I felt so bad for that spider. ♡🕷

I am amazed how you keep producing such excellent videos in such a short period of time. The editing, screen shots and commentary are superior. … But the NYC rents are insane!

It's interesting seeing all these apartments, but the more I see whether low end or upscale, the more I realize I could never live in NYC and wouldn't want to.

Ok, it’s okay😢❤ lol

bro its better to keep spiders in your house. They will eat pest that have no problem crawling on you, while spiders wont go near you even while asleep

Yeah, I would eventually blow my brain outs with that outdoor view. Thank God I live in the mountains in Colorado.

That last apartment was the best. Price, as usual, is high but your getting a much better place for not that much more money compared to the first joke…err I mean apartment.

I love your longer videos! Could watch you all day!

love your take on Apple Cider Vinegar, you are so right on !!!! :)

Brothers from another mother.

This is absolutely mind boggling that you literally pay that much for a tiny place. Where I live we have 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, living room, family room, basement w/ laundry area, kitchen, dining area, 3 car garage, deck, patio, pool and a little bit over an acre lot for $1830 mortgage payment.

That 3250.00 apartment is very nice, although, I would try to be home before dark. Fun video. Thanks.

Shame on you for killing that spider for no reason. He wasn't bothering anyone and no one lives there! He was probably just hungry being trapped inside. You could've put him outside or just left him alone!

I'm not fitting in that shower

After yesterday's 5000 square foot showplace to these...omg. The 1st is nothing more than a glorified closet. & like Charles said about the 2nd, "unfortunately" & ruff by v the garbage area. Good thing he started to redeem himself with the last 2. & the last definitely had enough storage space in a doorman building wth an elevator (2 bonuses). Sure how Cash remembered to get his sweatshirt out of the dryer. You know that 1st shower was miniscule if he turned it on while just turning around.

The last apt was the best value. Nice place too.

Would be cool if you could revisit the places you check out and see how the tenant furnished and made use of the space!

I used to like You. Now I hate what You did to that poor spider

Oh goody, Charles is here

It's the view of the other side of the basement PERK that does it for me. I'm sold 😂

Was killing the spider that was minding its own business necessary? Jeez.

Rip spider, never forget.

Spiders 🕷️ eat the insects that are now going to feast on you while you are asleep in that apartment! I always put them outside instead of killing them, but that’s just me.

Its me too. It makes me sick how some are so insensitive.

Charles is a legend

Wow 10'×12'!! The camera makes it look so much bigger.

That first apartment is too small for the price, and the intrusions of the fireplace and pipe limit the use of what little space there is. The windows don't seem to be able to function as emergency exits. Charles' basement unit was a much better deal for the money! The third apartment is legally only a two-bedroom, so despite the fact that the rooms are large it's a bit too pricey. There are better places to share for $4,000 each. The last one with the humungous bedroom and tons of storage space would work well for a couple, and each of them has their own bathroom (which some couples prefer). The price on that one is reasonable by NYC standards. You have a winner here, Charles!

Hey Cash, I love watching your videos. It would be interesting if you could, if it's not hard to find out, give the year or age of the buildings themselves. I imagine many are very old.

Love your humour😂

The rent for these places are more than I bring home in a month. That’s insane!

Cash and Charles as roommates, I could see it.
